It's mostly the other way around: When it makes a difference then for the enduser. Compiletime is quite the same.

Many ppl say's it feels smoother than "normal" roms. Don't know if there are benchmarks that prove that "feeling" but otherwise: What did it help when a benchmark tells you that your phone is faster than light but your overall feeling is laggy :confused::p

Oh, btw. my last compiled RasSaber (with your reverted compiler directives) in combination with your last kernel is smoother than butter in the sun :highfive::good::victory:

If we want to get it faster we have to enable mind reading:cowboy::silly::eek:

I have installed the latest 5th kernel on the 2nd ROM release, so far it's going really smooth but it's been just a bit under an hour, so cannot talk about other optimizations (interactive governor with noop scheduler and mpdecisions on, no OC/OV/UC/UV). I'll let you know... :cowboy:

What I noticed yesterday after flashing the previous kernel (there where some problems as I forgot to do the wipes, so I could not connect to google services, wifi working but on grey, so I reflashed, installed the June, 3rd kernel, wiped and everything was fine again) that my mako has disappeared from my devices Play account on the web, even if the Play Store app works perfectly on the phone (official gapps) Anyone has any idea of what's going on? Thanks!

Tried faux display?

I believe it's safe to say my thoughts on the new kernel are not just placebo. Seems noticeably faster/more responsive. From loading and scrolling on xda to the pull down and quick toggles. Nicely done as usual. Glad you will get the device soon. :beer:

Updated to jdq39 images (just cause)

Flashed superwipe script

Flashed kernel wipe script

Flashed unofficial build

Got hung at Google splash screen

Booted back to recovery and flashed kernel from op

Got to black screen after splash screen

Had to restore backup.

Any further ideas I'm here bro

Re: [ROM][4.2.2-JDQ39][AOSP][LINARO][SaberMod-toolchain-4.7.x]OFFICIAL SaberMod

It seems like the blank screen (no bootanimation) is ROM related, where as the stuck on Google logo is only related to the GCC 4.8 kernel. Ther'e only two things ROM related it could be that affect the nexus 4 that don't affect my nexus 7. I've changed the display hardware back to how it was before when it was known to work. I'll have a new unofficial build up soon. Mediafire won't let me do Roms more than 200mb so this time I'm uploading it to goo and I'll post a link.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sparksco:
Ok here we go round two:

Don't flash the last testing kernel I posted. If you get stuck on Google logo (which I doubt since I reverted kernel back to use gcc 4.7), then flash the testing kernel attached to the first post. After this there's only one more thing can be causing blank screen!

Gcc4.8 kernels cause black screen, sparksco had to revert to gcc4.7 kernel for this build to boot properly. I did try to flash gcc4.8 test kernel on the last test build to see if it worked... It gave me black screen.

Thanks sparkco for your endurance

It should boot up just about any kernel now. I'm adding some more mako stuff like extra mako audio and I'm going to start for the next nightly build. Hopefully I'll get to the point where a RC is in the near future. Hope everything is running well for everyone.

That's a lot better than mine during a full blown build. Usually when not building im in the 40s. I think its just where my laptop isn't one of the newest out etc. Its got a max of 90C for CPU so as long as I don't go that hard I might be safe still building.

I just hate how much more hot laptops get than desktops.

No man it was just a cheap thing I found in a store. Its just fans that push air in.

I had thought about taking a chunk out of the bottom to open it up more but eh I'll keep trying things to cool it before me and the Dremel go to town

I might take it apart to see how dirty it is, if it is dirty and try and clean it

Sent From My Nexus⁴
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] MagicalSword:
Yes, of course it is... :) However, it's not in my devices listed on the Definitions page of the Play Store (which means I cannot install on it from the web). I have cleared cache and data but still nothing... Curiously, my old GNexus which is currently using my SO is listed there (as well as my ChaCha with CM9)... Must have been something related to the flashing... When do you plan to release a new ROM version? I might as well do a full wipe and start anew and see if it reappears there...

Oh, well, first world problems... :)

Cheers!

Edit: weird, I changed the Play Store web site language and suddenly there it was my mako... oh, well, glad it did, not a big deal anyway, at least for a little while...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sparksco:
Yeah just be careful with the fans cause it might push more dust and lint into it. I think there's cooling stations online for pretty cheap. Try newegg.com they usually have pretty cheap stuff.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sparksco:
Wow they shipped my nexus already. Just ordered yesterday O_o
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] strapped365:
Yeah I'll check there. I've had the iHome cooling station and a couple other Walmart brand laptop cooling fans and they don't seem to help a single degree.

That's what leads me to think I should open the back of er up and get to checking out its internals, so I know what plastic to cut off to keep it more cool.

I'm guessing it is dirty since its used, but the stock fan makes hardly no noise so it don't sount dirty if that makes sense. I remember an old desktop sounded like an airplane taking off before I cleaned it.

Good thing about this one is you can move the fan to where you need it. You probably want it right under the heatsink for the CPU. There's where the most heat was coming from on my old laptop. :good:

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sparksco:
yeah I know, same thing happened when I ordered my N7.. Bad thing about ordering right after release is hardware flaws. Like with my N7 there's some screen lifting but not enough to cause any major issues.

Good thing is the promotions like the $25 playstore credit I got when I order my N7. But I'm mad now cause the 16GB N7 is $200 now, same price I payed for my 8GB laster year -_-

Most of the time they get the flaws worked out after about a year though which is perfect for me getting the N4 right now :D

It should have a very fast chip in it.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sparksco:
Nope no -O3 for the kernel. I've never had much luck getting my nexus 7 kernel to boot with -O3. I'm using the -Os which is optimized for size, better for kernels IMO. The larger in size the kernel is the more memory it will use. But I did enable aggressive-loop-optimizations which is disabled in the current kernel. Should work fine since I have it on the N7 kernel.

https://github.com/SaberMod/lge-kernel-mako/commit/49a28e2c88c82b2cc47fe17ceca6b4390a807611#

Think I should include it in the next build or release a new kernel first just in case? Would hate for it to cause issues. But so far all the kernels I've heard about for other devices can build with this optimization.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jarjar124:
I wouldn't mind. You have this on the grouper one right?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sparksco:
Yup. I don't think it will cause issues. I looked at some other kernels that use gcc4.8 and they don't disable it.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] strapped365:
I would do just the kernel first. I could build it then flash it cause right now I'm about to open up and repo sync anyways.

Lol. Same. I'm dual booting Windows 8 and ubuntu. When it prompt me to update, I was like why not :) [MENTION=2394329]sparksco[/MENTION] when I just do the kernel script, is there a zip somewhere to flash? Or I have to manually do it myself?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sparksco:
Yeah just do ./mako-kernel-clean or ./mako-kernel or bash. Either one of those will work.

Just use the kernel zip. Extract the contents into a folder named something. Get the arch/arm/boot/zImage from the kernel source and replace the one in the kernel zip folder. Zip and flash. Normally I just select all the files and folder, right click and select compress. Then make sure it's set to compress zip cause it's set to .tar by default for some reason.

Request was not cosmetic; it makes the nav bar visible under sunlight. Way it is now it's basically a question of remembering where the buttons are and going for it.

Objectives? What, like an agenda you mean? World domination perhaps. But you get to keep your rom, don't worry. :thumbup:
